i dont think it answers your question but...

when i went to winthrop i asked how would you know if its a trickle(since a gush is obvious) if you are already at the bathroom to go pee.. and they said if i stood up it would still be trickling down.

Also, amniotic fluid is not supposed to have an odor. It's a tricky thing to tell so I'd check with your doctor and make sure they are checking your measurements and all.

I broke my water at 19 weeks and continued to leak fluid for 7 weeks. When my water first broke, I soaked my pants thinking I had lost full bladder control. Even with the slow leak afterwards, I had to wear a pad and change it frequently - you would fill it.

If you think you are leaking - get checked!

thats exactly what mine felt like. I was leaking for a while and very time I stood up I felt a tiny bit, it 100% felt like I was just peeing myself a tiny bit. ( a few drops)

ok, so I have no trickling or dripping when I stand, I might just be over-analyzing everything??

amniotic fluid has a sweet smell and is a light hay color.

You are likely leaking pee. I do that Chat Icon

Speak with your doc to be sure. I was leaking fluid with my first.
